Britain awakens to the threat of fracking. Germany bans it.

Wednesday 30 July 2014
Water companies have issued stark warnings over the government’s plans to allow shale gas exploration across half of the UK mainland.

Although the Department for Energy and Climate Change has said that fracking will not go ahead in sensitive areas such as national parks and SSSIs, unless there are “exceptional circumstances [when this is] in the public interest,” environment groups have said that this caveat and a number of “giant loopholes” mean that in reality these areas will be afforded little protection.
Opponents of fracking warn that the process (shooting a high pressure mix of water, sand and a proprietary chemical mix into shale rock formations below ground to blast them apart and release trapped gas) has serious implications for water and air pollution, public health and, in agricultural areas, soil quality.
Water UK, which represents the country’s major water companies, warned ahead of the new licensing round that shale gas extraction would pose a threat unless it is “carefully planned and carried out”. The group also warned that the incredibly thirsty fracking process could aggravate water shortages in some areas, such as the South East, a sentiment that was echoed by NGOs and quangoes responding to the government’s consultation on the latest round of licensing.
Water UK’s policy adviser Dr Jim Marshall last week told the BBC that water companies are demanding to be consulted before fracking becomes widespread in Britain. Marshall said water UK did not come down on either side of the fracking debate, but warned that cut corners and compromises in safety standards could leave the country “counting the cost for years to come.”
It has also emerged that submissions to the government consultation on its plans to expand fracking across the country included objections from quangoes such as Natural England and Public Health England. The DECC noted that a “substantial majority” of groups consulted did not support its licensing plan, and expressed concerns over environmental or public health risks.
Speaking to Farming Online on Tuesday, Cathy Swingland, who runs a mixed farm in the South East, where Celtique Energie have proposed to frack within the South Downs National Park, expressed her concerns over the controversial extraction method, which she said “Represents the industrialisation of the rural landscape, which is not helpful if you’re producing food.”

TAP – The threat to water is not an accident. That is the purpose of this industry, to make fresh water inaccessible and subsequently into the most profitable business ever created. First water resources must be destroyed. Fracking is the delivery weapon. Not one main political party opposes fracking.
Germany bans it for seven years.

Thank you for that.
We might be able to do some serious investigations again.
